Artist Statement
The “overlooked” film series serve as portraits of our simultaneous interconnection with and disconnection from the world around us. Things that are and things that once were. The often overlooked.
Images captured in Ohio and during my June, 2014 residency in Hrísey, Iceland at the Old School Arthouse.
